Lists, Lists, and More Lists!

So I'm pretty detail-oriented when I'm interested in said details. In an effort to actually keep track of the books I read, in 2005 I made a list that's turned into the annual book list you see here. But that wasn't enough. See, I love using Excel (despite that fact that evil Microsoft makes it), and I created a "Book

Goodreads, LibraryThing all the Way

[kasonndra]

I use Goodreads and Library Thing. They're wonderful tools. I write as well as read so these help my brain stay organized, a glorious feat for a writer. I noticed a few other good tips such as the Facebook app and Google docs. I'll have to check these out. Thanks for this post and the info.

I don't keep a list of the boks I've read, I try to use my memory for that. And I'm figuring out either to use Anobii or LibraryThing to keep tracks of the books I buy - I have a bunch of books that I forget I've got and don't get to read them XD so,mmmh,I really should do a list of some sort -.-

Haha, I tried at one time to just remember books I read but that didn't work for long. I use GoogleDocs (after Microsoft Excel started freezing up because of too much text/colors) to keep track of books I've read, what I rated them, whether I want to buy them. I then organize it into different lists: by rating, alphabetical by title, and a separate page for series (where I have to-be-released dates & titles listed). It's a lot of lists, but I like being organized. :)
